Hello Eleanor:

That darned AA made me old too... if it wasn't for AA and being sober I wouldn't have seen 1990. Look on the bright side !!

And tell the kids you're thinking about changing your will.

All the best.

Ha! ... Bird Brain Bob's got it right Ellie, ... ... ... AA got me old too ... LOL ... or maybe Bob's got kicked by his Ostrich one too many times, who knows ...


Hey Ellie, seriously, are you getting medical assistance/attention for the health problems you mentioned? ... what kind of issues are you having? ... maybe one of us have been through or are going through something similar ... let us know ...

Ellie! Glad you're here! I sobered up (finally) by the Grace of God, looked in the mirror and I WAS old. Spent my life as an alcoholic...There's a line on page 152 of the BB that says,"The most satisfactoy years of your existence lie ahead" That is a promise I'm looking forward to claiming every day.

When I start to feel that way Ellie I just have a one night stand......with a meeting :)

Seriously though, go to a meeting, get some phone numbers and use them. The people giving you their numbers need you to help them stay sober. You'll be amazed at how much better you'll feel after you've helped someone by letting them help you.
